“I didn’t realize I had had any sense knocked out of me,” R’nd was already getting tired of the riddles Kerrin had taken to speaking in. If this was simply about the prank played by not mentioning G’rem would be in charge of the class then he could twist things around enough for it to fit. No one wanted to be on the receiving end of the grumpy bluerider’s wrath, not even other riders, so he could see it from Kerrin’s point of view that it was a huge betrayal and a lapse in judgement to purposely place him in such a situation. He should apologise for it and whatever punishment was doled out, perhaps even offer to help if he could. It still seemed odd, however, when the weyrbrat normally grumbled about the revenge played on him and then ignored R’nd for several days to all of a sudden try to murder him.
“Look, I’m sorry I didn’t tell you it was G’rem. What did he task you with?” He really didn’t want to help out and would probably only land both of them in more trouble if he was caught assisting but it really was only fair to put the offer out there, especially if it worked to calm Kerrin down. Although that lovely kick to the stomach begged for the rider to stay out of everything and to keep the apology to himself. That train of thought brought him back to Kerrin’s interest in the bruising. Oh, shard it, it was time to get out of the haze of confusion he had been left to stumble around in.
“Kerrin… I’m not a mind-reader and I’m not going to ask Ayyonth to do it for me either though that temptation is growing with every verbal assault I take. It can’t be G’rem that has you so upset and while your lack of even trying to feign concern in the bruising was ever so touching it’s also baffling. Why point them out now when you haven’t since the first time you saw me after a flight?” Growing increasingly frustrated, R’nd ran both hands through his hair, leaving it in a beautifully chaotic mess that he didn’t even attempt to tame as, for once, his appearance wasn’t ranking too high on the list of priorities right then.
“And just so you’re aware, Ayyonth won’t leave that rock,” naturally just to further irritate him, Ayyonth dove from his rock into the lake and merrily swam around, “…or the lake without both of us on his back, so trying to wait me out and not answer won’t work.”
